    You’re so much of a victim, unlike the Palestinians who are being actively genocided while you fervently defend the genocider-in-chief who supports it so hard that he’s willing to lose votes over it.

      Your comment reeks of privilege. Millions of Americans can’t afford the chance to not vote Biden. Not voting Biden will also actively worsen the situation in Gaza.

        I’ve got news for you, biden is already actively worsening the situation in Gaza. He’s giving israel all they want to carry out their genocide. Don’t talk about privilege while you excuse genocide.

          Not voting for Biden makes it worse than it is right now. If Biden is not going to be president, the utter maniac Trump is. You can oppose the war on Gaza and still see this simple truth.

              A first past the post voting system that over-represents rural areas

              The extremely conservative US mindset

              The fact that right wingers are somewhat unified and will always vote for their candidate no matter what while progressives are split.

              The fundamental problem is that you can’t possibly hope to boil politics down into two parties. Republicans are far right while Democrats are liberal conservatives. There exist leftist ideas within the democratic party but they don’t really have a voice. What you need to fix this mess is proportional voting, a less powerful president and preferably one who is elected by a parliament coalition and not directly.

              Until you have that, the only sane thing to do is vote for the less insane party.

      And you’re such a hero, demanding that their genociders be given as much aid and support as humanly possible.

          Israel funds people who are against their golden orange boy and call the ongoing operation in Gaza an inexcusable genocide by a pseudodemocratic ethnostate that should have its aid revoked and be treated as an international pariah?

          Damn, they’re getting diverse.
